tablejockey, there's a short thread in the Music section here already with a few comments from folks who have the new stereo mix. Also, you can go on Amazon and listen to 30-second samples of each tune (including the tunes on the other discs with alternate takes and chat). Not the highest quality, I'm sure, but enough to get an idea of the mix and how it compares to previous versions.

Yes SOB is Soon Over Babalooma which is the album of band Can. Speaking of "Soon Over Babalooma" will less likely trigger emotion than speaking of SOB.Oh these accronyms aren’t they’re annoying or haven’t you been talkin’ about Rude Island?So truthfully, not angry at all, but yes anoyed by accronyms, and, well, don't care much about going where everyone occasionally goes anyways...
